Chapter 50 Laboratory Establishment In the science and technology park, in front of a building next to Xinghai Technology. Trucks carrying equipment were constantly coming in and out. At this moment, a brand new sign is hung on the door of the newly renovated building. 'Xinghai Technology First Laboratory' Jin Qiaoying's decisiveness and efficiency are evident from the fact that she did not neglect Fan Ren's request at all. "Almost all of the 10 billion yuan in Xinghai's account is here. There are about 5000 million yuan left to keep the company running normally." She recited these numbers effortlessly, and then cast her eyes towards Fan Ren. The depths of her charming phoenix eyes were full of anticipation. "Don't worry, the first thing we need to solve is the purification problem. I already have the method, but now there are some difficulties in debugging." Fan Ren had a look of confidence on his face. Over the past month, he had been reading books and comparing the techniques in his mind. Now he had a general idea of the purification process in his mind.
The subsequent equipment research and development, to put it bluntly, is to spend money, learn from repeated failures, and finally complete the equipment research and development. During this process, if there is no continuous financial support from Xinghai, there will be basically no hope. Now Jin Qiaoying is in charge of Xinghai's daily affairs, Liu Jun is in charge of the marketing department, and Zeng Yingying manages the logistics. He can also really spare some time and lead a group of researchers in the research department to focus on the graphene chip project. Jin Qiaoying nodded and followed Fanren into the laboratory. Fanren saw the equipment installation work going on in an orderly manner along the way. This is all thanks to Zeng Yingying. Xinghai has begun to transform into a formal enterprise, instead of the chaotic and chaotic situation he and Liu Jun had been running before. In Fanren's new office, Jin Qiaoying sat opposite him and handed him a document. "Last month, Xinghai Technology benefited a total of 4 million from patent licensing. Excluding expenses, plus the 5 million battery orders it had received previously and part of its original funds, a total of 10 billion remained." Fan Ren nodded and said that out of the 10 billion, more than 9 million had been invested in this experiment, and the remaining fraction had not been touched. Jin Qiaoying continued: "According to the market department's estimates, starting from this month, all major battery manufacturers will expand the production capacity of solid-state batteries, and the revenue at the end of this month is expected to increase by 200% compared to last month." That’s 8 million in net profit, an astonishing figure. But there was no happiness on the faces of ordinary people, only solemnity. All this money will be invested in the research and development of graphene purification equipment. Seeing that Fanren already understood it, Jin Qiaoying brought up the independent idea of high-voltage radio. At present, there are very few people in the Xinghai high-voltage radio department. He and Liu Jun both bear unshirkable responsibility for the failure of this market. The original price was 5 million for three years, but now it seems too low. Fortunately, there is still more than a year and a half before the patent expires. By then, with Xinghai's current business status, I believe we will be able to negotiate a satisfactory price. Afterwards, although Deli’s malicious competition behavior has now been compensated, because they had wasted half a year in the market, they had already been almost fully exploited by major companies. Xinghai currently has only dozens of technicians in the field of high-voltage radio to maintain the operation of the department. They are only responsible for providing upgraded supporting facilities to major manufacturers.
The income is pitifully low. Take the first phase of Nebula Manufacturing's plant as an example. The quoted price is around 3000 million yuan, and as time goes by, the price will get lower and lower. Jin Qiaoying meant to separate this department, have Xinghai hold 100% of the shares, and operate to list it in an attempt to see if it can perform well on the stock market. After all, the high-voltage radio department is now a stable and profitable project, but for what Fanren wants to do, the money comes too slowly. From this day on, Fanren's life became like when he was developing solid-state batteries. I sleep on a folding bed in the office and stay in the laboratory all day and night. The new research and development direction of graphene purification is actually extremely boring. After assembling the equipment according to the answers given by the system, Fan Ren and a group of researchers spent the next few months inputting data over and over again - failing - modifying the data again - failing again. This endless cycle passes slowly. On the Xinghai side, just one month later, the High Voltage Radio Company was established, with Xinghai Technology holding 90% of the shares. Liu Jun temporarily served as the general manager of the branch and held a 10% stake. This is a generous wedding gift that Fanren prepared in advance for this brother with whom he has been friends for five years. Six months later, Nebula Manufacturing completed the upgrade and maintenance of the battery factory that was taken over by Deli Electric. After the production capacity was fully utilized, Nebula's terrifying money-making ability was truly demonstrated. Xinghai Technology's parent company earned nearly 6 billion yuan from various battery manufacturers in 50 months. After Xingyun Manufacturing completed the upgrade and transformation of its existing factory, its production capacity reached 70% of Deli Electric's current battery production capacity in just one month. The net profit reached 30 billion. Moreover, Jin Qiaoying didn't put any thought into generating these profits; it was all done by Yun Yin alone. This is the benefit of separating the business department. With a light load, the parent company of Xinghai now only needs to focus on investing in Fanren Laboratory. In a private room of a restaurant in Linhai City, two men were toasting each other. "Mr. Lu is now the leader of R&D Group 4, which is really amazing." "Hey, stop talking about it. This college student's entrepreneurship is just nonsense. As a CEO, he doesn't enjoy his life, but comes to our R&D department to take up the position of the head of the R&D department. Isn't this nonsense?" "Haha, I don't think so. I heard that you, Xinghai, have spent a lot of money on new projects in the past few months. It's not like what you said. After all, Mr. Fan's previous achievements are obvious to all." When Lu Youbin heard the drunken words of the middle-aged man in front of him, he immediately said "Pooh" with disdain. "Manager Yu, you don't know. He's a kid who just graduated from college a year ago. He thinks he can do anything just because he's lucky. Xinghai will be finished in his hands sooner or later." After saying that, he revealed a trace of helplessness and said, "But he has the patent, and the company also belongs to him, so he can do whatever he wants." Manager Yu, who was sitting opposite him, smiled and did not refute. He filled his glass with wine and the two of them drank again. Seeing Lu Youbin's increasingly red face, he casually said, "I heard that Xinghai's profits have been taken away by your President Fan during this period?" "Of course! So he is just an idiot, and he has wasted billions of dollars. Do you think it would be a waste to use this money to provide benefits to our employees?" As he spoke, he couldn't help but reveal greed in his eyes. Yu Zheng, who saw all this, smiled and said, "All bosses are like this. No matter how much money they have, it's theirs. What does it have to do with us employees? Don't you think so?" "Isn't it? Manager Yu's words really hit the nail on the head. Although Xinghai's bonuses are not low, we got them by completing tasks one by one with our own abilities. He can just casually spend billions on graphene purification. It would be better for him to give us middle and low-level employees more benefits. At least we can think well of him instead of wasting our time and getting nothing in the end." As soon as he finished speaking, a gleam of light visibly flashed in Yu Zheng's eyes. Today's meal was indeed not in vain.
Then he casually said, "Isn't there a ready-made method for purifying graphene? Isn't it better to mess with that thing because you have nothing to do?" Lu Youbin immediately said, "You have to say that he is daydreaming. After developing two patented technologies, he really thinks he can do anything. He actually wants to make achievements in that area. He doesn't even think about whether he can handle it. I'm sorry that the company has a confidentiality agreement in this regard, so I can't say too much about the details." Although Yu Zheng secretly hated that he was about to make the final move, he was stopped by him. But on the surface, he didn't care at all and said, "Hey, I understand. Let's have a drink!"
